Common Ground Lyrics by Busty and the Bass

Uncommon Good

2017

Last time we gathered, we both got drowned out
Over, under age, a moment's all we got to be now
So why am I waiting?

This time I'd rather we both got thrown out
Before and past the fame, this motion's all we got to be now
But I couldn't take it

Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout waiting
All the time I wish we'd taken
It's on my mind
To see you again
Only I
Leave it again

Last time that I looked to you with no doubts
All those underrated days that I remembered so well
Why are they fading?

Try to say something but I don't know how
All the ways you saved me you might never get to know now
Cause I couldn't say it

Am I over the hill or living under a rock?
Last chance, moving slow but I know what I got
Reminiscent and I'm wishing I knew what I was missing
If I listen I can dance to the rhythm I got

Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout waiting
All the time I wish we'd taken
It's on my mind
To see you again
Only I
Leave it again

I felt them turn their backs on you
Lose the time to listen
Even with what you've been through
And all that I've been given
And you could probably find Jesus hidden in a crossword
Make him stay for supper, yeah
And I remember when you heard your mother's voice
Twenty years after oh I said who knew at all
Oh, still gives
Twenty years after

Past time it looked like you knew what I felt
Overthought the fate, chasing all I hoped to be now
So why am I waiting, I couldn't take it
Why am I waiting, waiting, waiting

I'm underrated and I'm faded, trying to make me a plan
But I created all the weight of trying to make me a man
It's complicated in a way, I'm always feeling deflated
I've waited patiently, I've hated wasting youthful mistakes
So shit don't act like that, don't pack that crap, don't call me incapable
Don't lack in facts I might retract myself from the kid's table
I'm done with all this chasing and facing cooperation
I'm locked inside the basement, I'm not trying to be complacent
Am I over the hill or living under a rock?
Last chance, moving slow but I know what I got
Reminiscent, on a mission, I know what I was missing
If I listen I can dance to the rhythm I got

Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout waiting
All the time I wish we'd taken
It's on my mind
To see you again
Wanna see you again
Thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout, thinking 'bout waiting
All the time I wish we'd taken
It's on my mind
To see you again
I won't leave her again
